Description

As a follow up to slow network simulation, we should allow the rate limit to be shared by all streams that are currently active on an HTTP/2 connection. This can be accomplished by having a per-connection object that is shared by all streams that they attach to when created.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore how Envoy manages HTTP/2 streams and connections, and design a rate limiting object attached to the connection that is shared across streams.
